Troubleshoot Run Problems
You may encounter the following run problems:
Incomplete runs—If a run ends in an error, in some cases you might still be able to display intermediate results if there is one completed p-pass. The engine calculates stress and displacement values or temperature and flux values after each p-pass. You can also create p-level fringe plots from intermediate results.
Depending on the nature of the error, however, the engine may not produce convergence information for the run.

Keep in mind that the engine overwrites existing intermediate results each time it writes new results.
At certain points during a run, Creo Simulate locks the results files so it can write data to them. When this occurs, you cannot access intermediate results.
Study does not converge—If the summary report says that your study did not converge during the run, and you used the multi-pass adaptive convergence method, you should look at a convergence graph to get more information.

You may also be able to circumvent run problems by managing your computer resources effectively. For technical information on resource and performance management, see Managing RAM, Solram and Swap Space.
